Gender role is a social role divided by gender, which determines a person's behavior pattern. Although the sex of men and women is determined by heredity, gender roles are the result of being influenced and educated by adults since childhood. The lack of gender education for children is not conducive to the healthy growth of children, and it is easy to cause the dislocation of children's gender roles, which will bring distortion and harm to children's minds.
Parents should correctly cultivate their children's gender awareness before their children are 3 years old. Some parents "cross-dress" their children when they are young, dressing boys in skirts and bow ties as girls, and some parents dress girls as "tomboys", which makes children confused about their gender. When you are older, you are easily pushed out or teased by other children, resulting in introverted, withdrawn, timid and melancholy personality characteristics.
Determine children's behavior patterns
Establish a correct gender awareness for children. After children know their gender, they will imitate the behavior of same-sex individuals in appearance. Parents are excellent role models for their children. Children can know female roles from their mothers, male roles from their fathers, and develop new dates with the opposite sex from their parents. Therefore, parents should pay attention to their gender characteristics, even personality characteristics and dress.
1. It is very important to educate children about gender roles correctly, which has great influence on their normal social interaction, love, marriage and family life in the future.
2. Gender role awareness can help children grow up. Although the present society pursues equality between men and women, the premise of this equality is to respect different genders and shape personality equality, which does not mean that everyone should be exactly the same.
3. Both boys and girls should pay attention to learning from the opposite sex after playing their gender roles, so as to make their personality stronger and promote the all-round development of body and mind and the perfection of personality. For example, boys should learn from girls to care about others carefully, and girls should learn from boys to be strong and brave.
The "neutralization" advocated now is to combine the advantages of men and women and to be eclectic, not to confuse the gender of children.
Let children know their gender roles clearly in childhood and let them develop their own personality style.
6. The Internet era has a far-reaching impact on children, but the information in it is mixed, which may even interfere with the healthy growth of children.
It is of great significance to educate children about gender as soon as possible for the formation of their outlook on life and values in the future.
